Gary is exactly the type of end the Raiders defense asks for. He's both a base and can line up as a wide 9 storming off the edge. The best is yet to come for Gary. Also, I'd love to pick up a 3rd rounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Beat writers said our staff liked Nassir Adderly and Darnell Savage at the senior bowl. Vic/Durkin/Ngyuen said we're definitely targeting a safety at 35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Apparently, Hollywood Brown has been hand timed in the 4.2's and laser timed in the 4.3's at Oklahoma. We need him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Mayock/Gruden have worked him out/ have presumably talked to him, so they would know if that was a possibility. Yeahhhh I'd say whatever they wanted to hear so....Yeahhhhh not buying it. If Zona doesn't take him and then we pass, teams might have him fall out of the first because of that being a possibility, which means he probably would choose baseball because the money is better without the hits. Basically a self fulfilling prophecy. More money means football. 1 team passes, another team passes and other teams think 'somebody knows something' and they pass being he wasn't on their board because they thought he'd be gone. Then in the 2nd round a team gets him but the $$$ isn't as good as baseballs and he doesn't give it 100% of his focus because he knows he can just play baseball and team is left with a learning experience. Murray wouldn't even be on my board because of it even being a possibility. A different position than QB and it's ok. Bo, Prime did both at a high level but QB?!? Had Elway not been traded the Colts were sunk...No wasted picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like the Raiders were targeting a slot safety this offseason and got one before the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thornhill, Adderly would be great but too many bodies there now for me to think it's happening. I do think 35 is a great place to select a DB but...If we trade down and get late 2nd early 3rd that would be a great spot for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need him. If we get one offensive player with our first four picks, I hope it’s him. I think he’s much better player than Josh Jacobs or Noah Fant, our other offensive targets. Although I do quite like Jacobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be shocked to see Ferrell not go until day 2. Ferrell seems like a dime-a-dozen end who will play in the league a long time, but is not a difference maker in any way. The more ends I watch the further down he goes on my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Burns can be the top DE in the class if he can gain more weight. I disagree on Burns. I think Burns is more or less already a finished product. He's long and skilled as a pass rusher, but he has absolutely no power in his game and his long legs sap some of his ability to bend the edge--which he will have to do more often if he's not going to convert speed to power. I just don't see players with Burns' profile become top edge prospects often in the NFL. My comp from the beginning for him is Leonard Floyd. A player I liked much more last year was Lorenzo Carter. Despite being profiling as almost identical athletes. Carter has a power element to his game I never saw from Burns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
